First: thanks for doing this work - it will make debugging on os x so much

That's the plan...


I'm not done with the review, but here are a couple of comments so far.

I tried running with:

$ sh ./configure --with-debug-level=slowdebug --disable-zip-debug-info
$ make

which results in:

## Starting hotspot
...
make[5]: *** No rule to make target 
`/Users/staffan/mercurial/hotspot-rt-jdk/build/macosx-x86_64-normal-server-slowdebug/hotspot/dist/jre/lib/amd64/libjsig.dylib.dSYM',
 needed by `generic_export'.  Stop.
make[4]: *** [export_debug] Error 2
make[3]: *** [all_debug_universal] Error 2
make[2]: *** [universal_debug] Error 2
...

I'm presuming that you're trying with a forest that includes
closed repos. If so, then you'll need the jdk/make/closed change
in order for the build to work.


Another comment: There are some makefile logic for BSD, non-darwin platforms. 
Have you had a chance to test this logic? (hotspot/make/bsd/makefiles/vm.make)

No, I don't have access to a BSD (non-darwin) platform. However, I'll
be pinging Dmitri Samersoff to ask a few questions...


Nit: hotspot/make/bsd/makefiles/vm.make: L345, L356: wrong indentation.

These are make cmd lines:

 344   else
 345         $(QUIETLY) $(OBJCOPY) --only-keep-debug $@ $(LIBJVM_DEBUGINFO)
346 $(QUIETLY) $(OBJCOPY) --add-gnu-debuglink=$(LIBJVM_DEBUGINFO) $@
 347     ifeq ($(STRIP_POLICY),all_strip)

so they have to be indented by a tab. Very ugly, but necessary.

Greetings,

I have the initial support for Full Debug Symbols (FDS) on MacOS X done
and ready for review:

    7165611 implement Full Debug Symbols on MacOS X hotspot
    https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-7165611

Here is the JDK8/HSX-25 webrev URL:

OpenJDK: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dcubed/fds_revamp/7165611-webrev/0-jdk8/
Internal: 
http://javaweb.us.oracle.com/~ddaugher/fds_revamp/7165611-webrev/0-jdk8/

This webrev includes changes for the follow repos:

    jdk8
    jdk8/hotspot
    jdk8/jdk
    jdk8/jdk/make/closed

Once these changes are approved, I'm planning to push them to
RT_Baseline. From there, they can follow the normal path to
Main_Baseline and eventually JDK8.

This work enables FDS on MacOS X for the 'hotspot' repo; the changes in
the other repos are necessary to support importing the .diz files from
the MacOS X 'hotspot' build into the forest build. I also fixed a few
FDS related errors in the magic incantations for the new build. This is
mostly a port from Linux -> MacOS X/BSD with the dtrace changes ported
from Solaris. In other words, this is Frankenstein's monster...

Thanks to Staffan Larsen for providing an initial set of changes
which I morphed into what you see here.

Testing:
- JPRT HSX build and test on all platforms; verification of .diz
  files in the MacOS X JPRT bundles
- JPRT JDK8 forest build and test on all platforms; verification of
  .diz files in the MacOS X JPRT bundles
  Note: In previous FDS changesets, I also did a standalone 'jdk'
  repo build and test, but that no longer seems to work.

As always, comments, questions and suggestions are welcome.

Dan
